Driving in from Osage Beach?

A Christian Church for Osage Beach Families

First Baptist Church of Camdenton is about 18 miles west of Osage Beach on U.S. 54. Sunday worship at 10:30 AM at 186 S. Business Rt. 5 in Camdenton.

First Baptist Church of Camdenton is a Baptist church in Camdenton, Missouri, about 14 miles west of Osage Beach on U.S. 54, with Sunday worship at 10:30 AM. The drive from the Osage Beach outlets or the Premium Outlets area to the church is about 19 minutes on a normal Sunday morning. U.S. 54 carries you straight west past Linn Creek and into Camdenton, where the road splits and Business Route 5 angles south through town to our building.

How far is FBC from Osage Beach?

About 14 miles, depending on where in Osage Beach you start. From the Premium Outlets area, plan on 19 to 22 minutes. U.S. 54 west is the most direct route.

What Sunday looks like in Camdenton

Worship at 10:30 AM, about 60 to 75 minutes total. A few congregational songs (mix of hymns and modern worship), an offering, then Pastor Cody Harlow preaches through a book of the Bible. Community groups for every age range meet beforehand starting at 9:00 AM. You're welcome to come for groups or just the main service.

Coming from the outlets area with kids?

Children's ministry runs concurrent with the service from nursery through elementary. Secure check-in. Background-checked volunteers. If you have older kids who want to stay with you in the main service, that works too.

Parking, especially if you're new

Free parking around the building. Greeters are at the main entrance ready to welcome you and answer any questions.

Can I watch online instead?

Yes. We've livestreamed Sunday worship since 2020 and broadcast every week on YouTube. The sermons archive has past services for catch-up. The livestream is genuinely useful if you're sick, traveling, or trying out FBC from a distance — but most people who end up at FBC long-term make the drive at some point. There's something a screen can't replicate.

Osage Beach FAQ

Questions from Osage Beach drivers

How long does the drive take on a Sunday morning?

From the Outlets corridor, about 19 minutes via U.S. 54 west.

Is there parking near the Camdenton square or do we park at the church?

Park at the church. We have free on-site parking and Business Route 5 has its own driveway, so you'll never walk from the square.

Are there closer Baptist churches in Osage Beach?

Osage Beach has several churches in town across denominations, including a couple of Baptist congregations. If a 22-minute drive each Sunday is the deciding factor, a closer healthy church is a real option. Our church finder guide talks through how to evaluate any local church.

Can vacationers staying at Tan-Tar-A area or Margaritaville visit?

Yes. From the resort corridor on the east side of Osage Beach, the drive is 25 to 30 minutes via U.S. 54 west. Visitors are welcome — show up at 10:30 AM in whatever you packed for the week.
